How to care for polished timber floors

These habits protect coatings after timber floor sanding and polishing or a new timber floor installation.

• Use felt pads under furniture and lift, do not drag, heavy pieces
• Wipe spills promptly — standing water is the enemy of timber
• Sweep or vacuum grit; use a timber-safe cleaner, not harsh steam
• Use mats at entries to catch grit and moisture
• Ask us before sanding again — over-sanding shortens board life
